Why you need this report: Set and report on how often certain types of comments are mentioned in survey responses.

- Go granular by reviewing comments on a contact level OR
- Utilize filters to zoom in on specific Waves and segments, such as Tiers
Getting the most out of the report:
The Comment Analysis report requires a more involved level of interaction in order to analyze your client’s comments about a number of attributes included in the questionnaire.
Bar Chart: Comments
- The comment tone and attributes are mapped on the color-coded bar chart:
- Green = Positive
- Yellow = Neutral
- Red = Negative
- Gray = None (not tagged)
- Hovering over each bar point will reveal precise figures for type and Tone % or #
- A selection of the attributes are part of a default set, while additional ones may be added during implementation to better suit your company’s needs
- X-axis (horizontal) = Frequency
- Shows the breakdown of tone for previously categorized and tagged comments
- Toggle between chart views by clicking on the icon:
- Show Stacked Bar Counts: Breakdown of comments by tone in absolute terms, using a distinct count for each tone classification
- Using this view shows which attributes have the most comments tagged by tone. As opposed to the % percentage view, longer bars indicate a higher count of tagged comments.
- Show Stacked Bar %: Breakdown of comments by tone in percentage terms (default view)
- The bar chart shows a breakdown in percentage terms, meaning that the percentage is the proportion of contacts that scored the attribute within the color-coded range. The attribute with the longest green portion of the bar may not necessarily be ranked first in the Data Table. The ranking is based on the percentage of responses that fell into the Score range specified by the user in the Report Settings section of the Settings & Filters section.
- Show Stacked Bar Counts: Breakdown of comments by tone in absolute terms, using a distinct count for each tone classification
- Useful Filter examples:
- In Settings & Filters Questionnaire Filters Wave, click on the dropdown menu and filter by specific waves
- In Settings & Filters Account Filters Tiers, click on the dropdown menu to narrow in on certain account tiers
- Y-axis (vertical) = Attributes (ex: Product, Value, etc.)
- This list of attributes is determined and set during implementation
- However, for the chart to be meaningful, some preparation has to be done through tagging and categorizing
- Examples to watch for:
-
Especially keep an eye out for a high number of respondent scores falling into the Red (0-6) range, as this may require further contact between the Account Managers and the clients in order to understand why your company’s product/services are poorly perceived and to figure out how to improve
- If a particular attribute is not being scored by a high number of respondents (Gray = Do Not Know) this provides a chance to understand whether the attribute is potentially:
- Not valued or found useful by clients
- Not understood by clients
-

- Contact Filters: by Contacts, Roles, and other types of contact-related information
- Questionnaire Filters: by Questionnaire, Wave* OR Start/End Dates*
- Question Filters: by scores relating to specific question types and attributes

*NOTE: We suggest using Campaigns (“Waves”) instead of Dates for accuracy in including all Non-Responders. Waves are time periods used for sending, managing, and analyzing feedback and assessing change in customer perception over time (similar to a marketing campaign)
